We are beyond proud that DAS Portfolio – which will enable analysis, comparison, and benchmarking across entire agri-oriented portfolios – is on the way for beta users.
 
It’s early days, but we believe demand to understand farmland at a collective level will be as significant as demand for asset-level intelligence.
 
Our software products and platform are at the centre of so much that’s critical, including climate risk, nature-based peril, and global food security. So I couldn’t be prouder of the team that’s working to bring this product to life. 
 
Our focus in the short term is working with an early group of customers to intensively iterate and understand how we best meet their needs.
 
We are only beginning to capture the value of Portfolio and what it will mean, as we start with “management” and over time, move and accelerate towards active “monitoring” of #farmland focused Portfolios, including event response.
 
Our first market is New Zealand, and Australia will follow soon after.
 
If you are a chief risk officer, senior executive, board member that needs to better understand the opportunity and risk attached to what are billion-dollar agri-portfolios in this part of the world, I encourage you to reach out directly.
 
Better understanding your market share; understanding how much you can gain or go after; or simple business planning is a big part of the picture.
 
But risk management and prudential requirements are at the core of “why” Portfolio is so essential, into the future.
 
We must be able to quantify and query physical risk not just across assets, but entire portfolios. Analyse existing portfolios. Modify and rebalance as required. And respond directly to a host of signals spanning climate change, productivity and agricultural indicators.
 
Unless we better understand what is going on at the ground in terms of the billion-dollar asset that is our productive land, we cannot manage it. So I’m very proud that the team that is DAS is mapping + measuring what matters.
